Does anyone have the latest radio 3.42.... packed up, to upgrade using computer. I currently have 3.35 and would like to upgrade but i cant find my stock sd card.

I remember a shell RUU.zip that you can place any nbh in for upgrade using computer but cant find it in back my backups.

any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You can find the latest radios on the ftp. Just go there and grab the one you want.

I'm a noob to flashing. I ran olipro and got to the tricolor screen, then disconnected per prompt on the desktop. I then inserted an sd card w/ the 3.42.40 gps radio renamed to titaimg.nbh. No response so I repeated the bootloader process. I now have a grey screen with "Loading..." I have yet to reconnect my xv6800 to the PC. Am I on the right track or do I need to do something else.

Also, I would like to flash to a pre-made ROM before diving into cooking my own in the kitchen, but I'm not quite clear on how to do this - is there a good step-by-step somewhere for flashing to pre-made ROMs once you've unlocked and flashed to a GPS radio, and is there a recommended ROM for the xv6800 vs. the Mogul?

The purpose of flashing to a higher number on the OLIPRO is to use the SD method to flash, instead of the USB method. I think your prob, is that you have NOT flashed to the HIGHER number on the OLI yet. You must first flash using USB to the higher number on the OLIPRo, then you may use the SD method to flash from thence forward! Hope this helps!!

Okay, so I worked thru the initial issue. It appears I've flashed the 3.42.40 radio and nueROM-M 201 (keeping it basic, I know). But, as one might guess, I've run into another snag - one I haven't seen repeated yet in this thread or elsewhere: After my call w/ vzw tech supp, I have ingoing/outgoing calls but no internet connection.

Per GaMedic's tutorial, I gave them the whole hard-reset-no-authorization-now-please-ineedanewAkey business, but this guy wanted to try a 1/2 dz. other tricks 1st, which eventually allowed me to make/recieve calls. I kept him on the line while I tested PIE & got the username/password is wrong error msg. We checked my data network connection (using "verizon" and "myphonenumber@vzw3g.com" as usernames and vzw as pw) w/ no success. We also (prior to the preceding steps) changed some values in EPST, which I am attempting to recall now. I have soft-reset throughout this process and am wondering if I need to re-flash the ROM again. At this point vzw's tech supp appears to be out of ideas...can anyone help me out (or point me in the right direction to help myself)?? Thanks!
